I think all new things should be given a chance as long as they do not harm anyone
It's good to try new things. Fliss

Not only that, but there's nothing in Tolkien lore which requires that all the Dwarves look like Gimli and carry Scottish accents. In fact, they are supposed to have few variations from humans, much as Elves and Hobbits do. Just different stature, emotional tolerance, etc.

...and after this, there's always Aragorn's journeys to Rohan and Gondor where he became Captain of the Guard along side a young and suspicious Denethor. What a movie that will make...

3d is optional and we've already seen an example of 48 - 60 frames being converted to 14 frames a second.

Avatar was framed with 48 - 50 frames but we only saw a fraction of it because it was played at cinemas at 24 frames a second.

Get hold of a blue ray copy on a good 42-60 inch LG screen and you'll see what i mean

Peter Jackson will only show this film at places where it can be played properly
comone.

and the cinemas that don't buy the new 48 frames a second will miss the chance to make money of a movie tha the whole world is going to see.

Avatar was filmed at 48 to 50 frames with the animation stealing the extra frames.
when it was played we were seeing 24 frames which was a third of what we were meant to see.

Get hold of a blue ray version of avatar on a LED LG screen and you will see what I mean.
It's amazing to watch

It's not that expensive to purchase the new equipment for 48 frames a second.

It depends on how much you want to drink the movie in.

How much do you want to be involved in the movie.

I have never heard anyone else critisise the use of 3d stating that it distracts you from the story.
so not true it helps you to understand the story better cause it's right infront of your face and you see things unnoticed before

Re: Peter Jackson Shoots Down Hobbit Critics

Gabe O'Sullivan — Fri, 04 May 2012 04:56:36 -0000

Probably true

Re: Peter Jackson Shoots Down Hobbit Critics

Gabe O'Sullivan — Fri, 04 May 2012 04:55:56 -0000

Thats just it we aren't seeing the full story and aren't being gripped by it and so we imagine that this is what happened.
we don't see the story comone.

Your living in the past century ma they have been using 24 Frames a second for about 100 years

Very true good on you

They have beards man
look at the trailer
but a filthy looking dwarfe won't get simpathy from us if he's supposefd to be a hero.
Gimli was comic relief in the movie remember

oh comone don't tell me you don't like watching 3d movies.
Who doesn't like watching the occasional 3d film at least.
3d brings you into the story more
Besides ofcourse it'll be in 2d as well

Re: Peter Jackson Shoots Down Hobbit Critics

Gabe O'Sullivan — Fri, 04 May 2012 04:47:51 -0000

Don't change it man.
everybody bought The Lord of the Rings in Blue Ray anyway to see it properly.
What could possably be wrong with seeing something better.
These days people critic effects sometimes in terms of their realism.
Theres to much missed with 24 Frames Per second

I think we should wait and see what the film is going to look like. Personally, when I go and see a film I don't sit there critiquing the director's efforts, I sit there lost in the story if it's good, or, if it's not good, wondering who wrote it and why they thought it would be any good. Story IS King.

Great stuff. I wish I could have been an extra in this movie. The scenery is outstanding! I can't wait to see the two movies!!!

Personally, I cannot wait for the FULL immersion experience where the holograms make you a part of the action! We cannot be too far off that! Can you imagine being a PART of Middle Earth? In ten years, this Holographic cinema might be the new kind of 'movie experience' in the future! 3D? Full immersion I say! In the meantime we have visionaries like Peter Jackson to lead the way. Remember, 'Talkies' were thought to be a 'passing phase' only 75 years ago!

I hope that it can also be viewed without 3d at the theaters - unfortunately 3d gives me a headache ..
